in my experience, the sw 11 driver won't work with the sw 1200- you get
printer error alerts. the sw 1200 driver will work on a 6800 if you drag
the driver to the system folder, in order to overide the installer which
wont install it on a mac with this processor. I have an old se running
system 7.5.1 desktop printing to a greyshared 1200
